Recorded origin, in the register's own words
1890년 참봉을 지내던 오영근이 동민들에게 자재를 희사받아 창건함. 1905년 승려 이영월이 중창하고 1952년 재중창. 1976년 이각규 주지가 중수하여 현재에 이름.
This paragraph is the origin and history field of the traditional temple register published by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, copied exactly. We leave it in Korean rather than translating it, because a translation would put founding dates, people and schools of Buddhism into words the source never used. Nothing here was added or edited by us.
